Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0585798A2] A key action mechanism (2) incorporated in an upright piano is accompanied with a repetition mechanism having a repetition lever (2q) rotatably supported by a butt (2i) and pushed by a jack (2d) after an escape from the butt for producing a gap (G) between a leading end thereof and a back check (2g), therefore, the butt and, accordingly, hammer assembly can rotate backwardly over a predetermined angle due to the gap, after the striking or after the escape of the jack, and, as a result, the hammer assembly is prevented from double-strike. <IMAGE>
